We're thrilled to welcome Bristols Restoration Specialists back for their second appearance at the Ayrburn Classic!

The restoration company made quite the impression in 2025 when Simon Manning entered his 1939 Rolls-Royce Wraith, taking home the Best in Show title. The Rolls was beautifully restored by Bristols, who joined us as an exhibitor the following year in 2026, and now 2027.

Known for their exceptional craftsmanship and passion for preserving automotive history, we're delighted to have the Bristols team back on board for another fantastic weekend.
